Argo talk on Primetime Sports 590

[Bruro]

590 is part of the problem with declining interest in the CFL in the GTA. Except for the talk after the GC win i heard next to nothing all year long about the CFL and when I did it was always how lousy and bush league the league was. rogers owns the BJs and so they will talk BJs endlessly. It not just McGowen either. Never forget a couple of months ago i was driving down the QEW one saturday afternoon to go see the Argos at bmo and i had 590 on. The sports news came on at the top of the hour and the news came in this order: BJs, other MLB scores, leafs preseaon, raptors pre-season, US college football scores and even scores from the BARCLAYS premiership league that afternoon in the UK! At last for about 10 seconds they mentioned the Argos 4 pm tilt that afternoon against Edmonton. Surprised they even bothered to mention just that!

Those guys are seriously out of touch. They say they can't remember who the QBs are and that the QBs of yesteryear were so great, there's a fairly decent crop now as well. Just nonsensical, some of the stuff they are saying, comparing the old Argos to today and how they can't compete. The Argos don't want to compete with yesteryear, they can't, it's a totally new ballgame now and management knows that. They have to build for the new reality not what the fossils of PTS think.

As much as I'm aware that we need all the (positive) media and promotion we can get, I almost don't want 590 around the Argos. They've done nothing but talk them down, wish for their demise and damage the team more than anyone else ever has, and now that they've won a Cup and are moving forward in a positive direction they want their piece of the pie? Nope, as far as I'm concerned they can buzz off. Keep letting us know what Josh Donaldson ate for breakfast. The funniest thing is that Blundell (is he even still with the Fan? I honestly have no clue) made a point to rag on both the Argos and TFC. As much as I don't care about soccer it would be hilarious if both the Argos and TFC, the two teams Blundell rags on, both won championships in the same year.

The Fan and the Argos is almost like the guy that picks on you in school but once you get a new video game system suddenly he wants to be your friend. Nope. Go away Fan

Blundell rightfully got his ass booted out of town months ago, the guy was terrible.

No, Grey Brady is back now. Not sure if that's better or worse.
